Ivo Canelas

I remember when I was a kid during summer vacations seeing my father returning from long runs. I remember how happy he looked.

I've started jogging some years ago, for fun, to fight smoking. Now that I've quit smoking (and have grown older), I have been running more frequently.

Turning 40 this year (2013), I want to run my first Marathon and mini-ultra before my birthday.

Portugal is an amazing place to run, due to its mild climate and amazing landscapes. The past few years there has been a running boom here both in the number of events as in the duration and intensity of the events.

I look forward to meeting you on our running and yoga retreats.
